short film shoot

I'm directing a short film that shoots on the 4th and 5th. Your space looks perfect for our needs! I was wondering if you could tell me about the sound levels in the space--is the building usually pretty quiet?

educational video on wine pairings

We will be hosting an event next month that will feature wine and infused chocolate pairings. ABC7 News would like to film us leading the wine pairings at a cool space before the event and this place looks perfect! We'd only need the venue for 2- 3 hours max on the 25th for the filming. It's an educational video comparing profiles.

I'm an actor and filmmaker. I'm doing a photoshoot for a feature magazine for my upcoming film . We will be doing varying portraits with minimal equipment and 6 people (hair/Mua, photographer, art director, myself and a PA). Your space has the perfect aesthetic. We are going for a bright, retro, Italian summer vibe. So excited to see the space!

film and digital photography shoot

I have had my eye on this location forever and finally have the time to try and shoot it. My goal in this space would be to create and shoot different style of film and digital photography, From editorial shots on a white backdrop to lifestyle b&w portraits with the beautiful light coming from the windows.
